For 1/35th of the price of a PS5 Pro you can get a copy of Hexahedra on Steam right now.
Hexahedra lets you use lasers to read the state of cubes in your factory, so unlike Sony I'm throwing in the optical drive for free.

If you train a generative model on nothing but cave paintings, all it'll ever give you will be cave paintings.
It takes humans to get from there to the Sistene Chapel.

Hexahedra is returning to @StratlanEvents! I ran a beta here back before the Steam demo came out, and now I'm back with a contest and some merch.
If you're coming, you'll find a flyer with details on your desk.
Come and find me in seat A4 if you've got any questions!

Soooo many awesome games came out last month - if you got lost in the May mayhem, our recap lists are a handy way to catch up.
Here's everything that caught our eye in May! thinkygames.com/news/new-thi…
I spoke to @LukePlunkett over at Aftermath about my time at Jagex and the huge number of different things that go into making an MMO work.
Yes, I slagged off JavaScript. Deal with it.

Hexahedra is part of this year's Cerebral Puzzle Showcase @PuzzleShowcase, which starts tomorrow - 23rd-30th May.
The launch discount will run throughout CPS, so get yourself to Steam, try the demo, ship some cubes, and see if you can find Octavius hiding about the place.

The text below the Hexahedra logo reads: "A visual programming game of factories, cubes, and mechanical choreography".
Below, Octavius the octopus with an arrow pointing at him and the text "(and a tiny octopus called Octavius)".
I played through the first two Hexahedra puzzles uploaded to the Steam Workshop by players, and I had a lot of fun with them 😀
I still can't work out how to solve the first one with only 14 commands...

Hexahedra is a programming puzzle game from @SidequestNinja in which you make boxes. It was released just a few days ago so, naturally, we assigned @ElectronDance to assemble some boxes for us. You can watch him explain how it’s done: youtube.com/watch?v=3E6jbxgp…
I've released the first patch for Hexahedra. Inevitably, more eyes on the game means people spot things I missed.
So if you found ghost panels in your Panel Storer, or you finished level 26 and were congratulated for finishing the demo, that's fixed!
